"Director Chen, I don't want to drink anymore. I really can't drink anymore."
"You don't want to drink anymore?"
"I'm getting old. I really can't drink anymore."
"How can a man say that? Finish the last glass."
"I really can't drink anymore. Brother Chen, I want to visit Nutshell someday. I feel that there is a huge space for cooperation between our two companies."
"Sure, sure. Take care, Brother Zhang."
… ….
During the entrepreneurs' party, there were often middle-aged people in their forties who were drunk and then picked up by their secretaries and drivers.
These people were the overlords in their own companies or the dignified boss who didn't smile. However, in this kind of circle of equals, everyone was polite and called each other brothers.
After the dinner tonight, the driver of Nutshell was already waiting downstairs.
"Go to the riverside apartment."
Chen Hansheng ordered after getting in the car, then closed his eyes to rest.
The driver nodded and stepped on the accelerator.
The drivers in the factory originally wanted to be the personal chauffeur of the big boss. Later, as time went by, they found that Director Chen preferred to drive himself probably because he was young. Therefore, they could only try their best to leave a deep impression on Director Chen in the limited service opportunities.
Around 11 o 'clock, Chen Hansheng came to the riverside apartment. After knocking on the door, Empress Dowager Liang opened the door and sniffed. She said with dissatisfaction, "You come home every day with the smell of alcohol. Don't irritate Little Yu' er."
"I know. It's a dinner that can't be declined."
Chen Hansheng was a little impatient with his mother's nagging.
Now the apartment was a little empty. The two middle-aged fathers had gone back to work in Harbor City, but their minds were obviously here. In addition to calling regularly every day, they also hurriedly reported when they heard that there was a way to prevent miscarriage.
Lv Yuqing went back to Harbor City to pack her clothes and came back soon. Therefore, now the "mother-in-law" and "mother-in-law" were taking care of Little Yu 'er. Aunt Lin was more leisurely. She bought vegetables every day, watched TV, and strolled around the riverside in the afternoon. She was just short of holding a corgi and sunbathing on the balcony.
"Little Yu 'er has morning sickness today, so she went to bed early."
Bian Shishi walked over and said.
Bian Shishi was also here tonight. If Liang Meijuan and Lv Yuqing were her personal nannies, then Bian Shishi and Chen Lan were the "daily tools" that accompanied Little Yu'er.
However, Chen Lan was more like a happy person. Bian Shishi would also chat with her and help her familiarize herself with the current situation of the law firm.
Xiao Rongyu planned to go back to the law firm in a few days. She might not be able to work like before, but she hoped that she could share some of the tasks.
This had once caused a discussion at home. Lv Yuqing and Liang Meijuan disagreed. With the current reputation of the law firm, after Xiao Rongyu started work, there would definitely be media reporters coming to interview her. This might affect the baby.
On the contrary, after discussion, Old Chen and Old Xiao felt that it was feasible. Little Yu'er was only three months pregnant, and her belly was not showing. Besides, being cooped up at home all the time would affect her mood.
The four middle-aged men even quarreled about this. In the end, Chen Hansheng called Professor Gao of the First People's Hospital. Professor Gao said not to be overly concerned. Under normal circumstances, there would be work at seven months, so three months was nothing to be afraid of.
"It's okay to rest. I just want to see her."
Chen Hansheng said with a smile. He changed his shoes, tiptoed to the master bedroom, and opened the door with a "bang".
He did not turn on the wall lamp, but the light in the living room was very bright. A few quiet rays of light shone in, reflecting the delicate oval face.
"Hoo ~, hoo ~, hoo ~"
Perhaps it was because pregnant women were more sleepy, but Little Yu'er did not notice the movement. She had a sweet personality, and even her breath had a sweet smell.
Chen Hansheng looked at her silently, and his thoughts drifted far away.
Now, everyone said that "the road to happiness is strewn with setbacks." This was because Chen Hansheng and Xiao Rongyu had experienced many things together. In fact, they did not know that for Chen Hansheng, this "setback" could be said to be two lifetimes.
"If things had developed normally, you might not have been able to wait for my confession, or you might have heard about my romantic affairs from your classmates. Now, you are preparing to go abroad to study in disappointment."
Chen Hansheng thought to himself. In his previous life, Xiao Rongyu went abroad directly after graduation. Many years later, the two of them could still meet again, but after all, they had missed a lot of time.
In this life, Xiao Rongyu also went abroad in disappointment. But now, she was back, and Little Yu'er was in her belly.
Chen Hansheng had never been a father. The mysterious feeling of being connected by blood was something he had only seen on TV and in novels.
But now, he also had an impulse, and that was, no matter how busy he was with work or how late he was at social events, he always wanted to come and see Xiao Rongyu. Only then would he feel at ease.
Even if Little Yu'er was resting or ignoring him, Chen Hansheng would not care.
"Meijuan, I think Hansheng has grown up."
Chen Hansheng looked at Little Yu'er. Behind him, three people were also looking at Chen Hansheng.
Lv Yuqing, Liang Meijuan, and Bian Shishi stood side by side. Lv Yuqing could feel Chen Hansheng's love for Little Yu'er from his expression.
"You are already a father. It's time for you to grow up."
Liang Meijuan's nose was a bit sour. This person had been naughty since he was young and did not follow the rules. Even if his business grew bigger and bigger, he did not have the sense of stability that old Chen had.
But Chen Hansheng's recent performance was seen by everyone, and they all had a high opinion of him.
This made Liang Meijuan feel very comforted. She also felt that her previous judgment was correct. Only when Chen Hansheng became a father would his sense of responsibility make him mature quickly.
"Oh ~"
At this time, perhaps because the movement was too loud, Little Yu'er on the bed suddenly frowned. Liang Meijuan quickly went over and closed the door: "Okay, okay, don't wake Little Yu'er up."
"Then I'll go to the factory dorm."
Chen Hansheng said reluctantly.
"Do you want to sleep on the sofa?"
Empress Dowager Liang said: "It's not safe to drive in the middle of the night."
"Forget it."
Chen Hansheng hesitated but still gave up: "I have the smell of alcohol on me. Little Yu'er will feel uncomfortable if she smells it on the sofa. The driver driving me is an experienced driver, so don't worry."
Seeing that Chen Hansheng was thinking about Xiao Rongyu, Bian Shishi was very happy for her best friend. She even decided that tomorrow morning, she would tell her about Chen Hansheng coming over tonight.
"Okay, go take a shower and rest early."
Liang Meijuan sent Chen Hansheng to the elevator.
Empress Dowager Liang would send him off every night when he went downstairs. Chen Hansheng did not notice before, but now that he realized it, he was a bit "in fear and trepidation". He even worried that he had done something wrong.
"Mom, go back. You don't have to send me off."
Chen Hansheng grinned: "I can already feel a strong sense of motherly love."
"You just finished praising and you're starting to be naughty again."
Empress Dowager Liang glared at her son and continued to watch the elevator jump up.
"Or …"
Chen Hansheng was also very smart: "Do you have something to tell me?"
"Nothing!"
Empress Dowager Liang frowned and waved her hand.
Chen Hansheng pursed his lips. When the elevator arrived with a "ding", Liang Meijuan reminded him not to play with the computer and mobile phone, and then watched the elevator slowly close.
Chen Hansheng went downstairs and got into the car. While the Porsche was driving on the road, he suddenly slapped his forehead.
Empress Dowager Liang hesitated. In fact, she wanted to ask about Shen Youchu, but the current situation did not allow her to do so, so she could only keep it in her heart.
"Sigh ~"
Chen Hansheng let out a long sigh. "So difficult."
… …
A few days later, it was mid-April.
April was the end of the world, and the peach blossoms in the mountain temple began to bloom. There were not many peach blossoms in Jianye, but the cherry blossoms in Jiming Temple were very bright at this time.
On Tuesday morning, the living room of Tianjing Mountain Residential Area 201 was unusually lively. Shen Youchu, Hu Linyu, Feng Gui, and Shen Ruyi were all back.
However, the main character today was not these adults, but the cute little Ah Ning. She was going to school today to register.
Hu Linyu, who had always been stingy, specially went to Jinying Department Store to buy a beautiful little dress for Ah Ning for this registration event.
Of course, when she came back, she complained why children's clothes were so much more expensive than adults'.
Shen Youchu had already prepared a pair of white little leather shoes for Ah Ning. There was a lively little butterfly on her feet, and when she walked, it flapped its wings and looked very cute.
As for Feng Gui and Shen Ruyi, they bought a beautiful little schoolbag, and Grandma also tied a red string on Ah Ning's wrist.
This was just an ordinary red string, but it represented the blessings and prayers of the elderly. When Shen Youchu came to Jianye to study in university, Grandma also tied a red string on her wrist.
Although Ah Ning did not have parents to accompany her, she was a little princess loved by everyone in this family.
"Our Ah Ning."
Shen Youchu squatted down, and her peach blossom eyes were full of gentleness. "From today onwards, you will be a primary school student."
Ah Ning was a little embarrassed, but her big eyes were full of longing for the upcoming primary school life.
There was also some inexplicable expectation, because she often stared at the door in a daze, and the adults all thought that she wanted to leave early to register for school.
"No matter how early it is, we have to take it step by step."
Hu Linyu arranged. "There are so many people, so we might as well not take the bus. Feng Gui will stop a taxi later, and we will also be extravagant."
"Actually, Sister Linyu can already buy a car."
Feng Gui said with a smile, "The business of the store in Xinjiekou is very good. Those who sit in the office like to drink milk tea very much. I estimate that we will be able to break even at the end of the year."
The fifth branch of the "Encounter" milk tea shop had officially opened in Xinjiekou. Chen Hansheng had provided a lot of advice. At that time, he and Shen Youchu were still very close.
"Beep, beep ~"
While they were talking, a car horn came from downstairs, which should be to remind people to pay attention to the car.
Then there was the sound of footsteps in the corridor. The footsteps sounded fast and powerful, and it should be a young man.
In the end, the security door opened with a "ding dong".
Ah Ning's eyes lit up, and she quickly ran to open the door. "Ah … Brother Zibo ~"
It turned out that it was not Chen Hansheng who entered the door, but Wang Zibo.
Ah Ning suddenly felt very depressed.
"Ah Ning, you are so beautiful today."
Wang Zibo didn't notice the change on Ah Ning's face. He still wanted to hug his sister, but Hu Linyu stopped him. "Ah Ning is already in primary school. She is a serious little girl now. You can only hold hands in the future. You are not allowed to hug her anymore."
"Oh, oh, oh."
Wang Zibo nodded. He felt a little regretful. Although he often came to visit Ah Ning, he didn't expect that Ah Ning would become a primary school student in the blink of an eye. Time flew by so fast …
"What are you doing here?"
Before Wang Zibo could sigh with emotion, Hu Linyu asked him fiercely.
It seemed that in Secretary Hu's heart, Wang Zibo was on Chen Hansheng's side, and Chen Hansheng was on Xiao Rongyu's side.
This proved that Wang Zibo was also on Xiao Rongyu's side.
"Ah Ning Primary School."
Wang Zibo explained, "I drove a car here to give you a lift."
"Do you care about your car?"
Hu Linyu retorted, "It must be Chen Lan who told you. I told you that she is a spy. Next time she comes here, I won't let her have dinner!"
Hu Linyu even dared to scold Chen Hansheng, so he didn't feel guilty at all when he scolded Wang Zibo.
Wang Zibo's temper was much better than Chen Hansheng's. Maybe he was muttering "Fat Girl Hu" in his heart, but he didn't care about it on the surface.
In fact, although the news was leaked by Chen Lan, it was Wang Zibo who asked to pick up Ah Ning, because he really cared about this little girl.
… ….
It was an ordinary five-seater Buick, a business car of the Nutshell Electronics Factory. Wang Zibo was the driver, and Feng Gui sat in the front passenger seat.
Shen Youchu, Shen Ruyi, and Hu Linyu sat in the back with Ah Ning.
However, Ah Ning wasn't in a good mood. She leaned on her older sister, watching the community getting farther and farther away, but still didn't see the familiar figure. Her big black grape-like eyes were full of tears.
"You wanted to sign up just now, but you were scared on the way."
Hu Linyu misunderstood. She thought that Ah Ning didn't want to go to school, so she comforted her, "Don't be scared. In the future, your class will be full of children like you. You'll make many good friends."
"Ah … Ah Ning promised to come!"
Ah Ning suddenly said in a low voice, then buried herself in Shen Youchu's arms sadly.
Hu Linyu didn't hear it, but Shen Youchu heard it clearly. Her body suddenly trembled, and she slowly lowered her head.
Langya Road Primary School was located on Langya Road in Qinhuai District. After Wang Zibo drove there, he found that the whole road was blocked.
Today was the day of pre-registration. Parents had sent their children here. Some parents deliberately drove the most expensive car at home to show off, so this Audi was very inconspicuous.
The school's security guards were guiding the traffic under the sun, but it was still too blocked. Feng Gui was smart. He opened the window and asked a security guard beside him, "Hello, how long do we have to wait?"
The security guard looked at Feng Gui, then glanced at the Buick's license plate, and answered reluctantly, "Let's wait a little longer. No one can be sure now."
Langya Road Primary School was a top school, and parents all sent their children here. Therefore, in a class, it was very normal that a child's father was a section chief of the provincial government or a businessman with a net worth of millions. Even the security guard was not used to it.
"Ho ho ~"
Seeing the security guard's attitude, Feng Gui tactfully took out a Chunghwa cigarette and handed it to him, saying, "You must be tired. The sun in April is also very strong."
Seeing the senior's parents being so polite, although the security guard didn't take the cigarette, he still said a few more words, "Look at you. You must have drawn numbers to come here. There are not many students like that."
"Let me tell you."
The security guard put his hands on his waist, as if everything was under his control, "Nowadays, everything depends on connections. It's the same for children to study. Families like yours can only wait in line. The parents who have a little bit of connections should be received by the teaching director. The parents who have a deeper connection should be received by the vice principal."
"The most awesome group of parents."
The security guard gave a thumbs-up, "Our principal receives them in person, but it's very rare. There are only a dozen in each grade. Cadres below the section chief level don't receive such treatment. If a businessman doesn't have a billion yuan, it's impossible …"
"Ring ~"
When the security guard's certificate was exaggerated, Wang Zibo's phone suddenly rang.
"Where are you?"
A familiar voice appeared in the receiver. It was Chen Hansheng.
The security guard was also very polite. Hearing that there was a phone call, he temporarily stopped bragging. After the phone call ended, he bragged again.
Because he found that there were two super beauties sitting in the back row. Although he couldn't see clearly, he occasionally caught a glimpse of them, which was already very stunning.
"I'm at the door."
Wang Zibo hurriedly said, "There's a bit of a traffic jam and I'm waiting in line. Where are you?"
"What the hell are you waiting for?"
Chen Hansheng said speechlessly, "I'm in the principal's office. I've already drunk a few pots of tea. Hurry up and come here!"
"Well …"
After hanging up the phone, Wang Zibo looked at the security guard who was in a daze, "Where is the principal's office?"
… ….
(Sorry, I'm a bit late. I have to check again.)
